17. Evolution of Resource Management

18. Fragmented Resource Management  Integrated Library System for management of (mostly) print  Duplicative financial systems between library and university  Electronic Resource Management  E-Resource knowledge base and Link Resolver  A-Z e-journal lists and other finding aids  Interlibrary loan (borrowing and lending)  Digital Collections Management platforms (CONTENTdm, DigiTool, etc.)  Separate systems for archival materials and special collections  Discovery-layer services for broader access to library collections  No effective integration services / interoperability among disconnected systems, non-aligned metadata schemes

19. Cycles of fragmentation > unification  Early Phase: Modular automation  Integrated Library Systems  Proliferation of systems to manage electronic resources and digital collections  Current unification phase: library services platforms bring together print and electronic resource management  Next phase? Bring archival and digital assets under common management platform

23. Ongoing gaps in Library Technology Infrastructure  Almost no systematic automation support for references and research services  Customer Relationship Management?  Resource sharing / Interlibrary loan management  Archives and Special Collections

24. Comprehensive Resource Management  Simplify resource management through platform consolidation  ILS + ERM + OpenURL Resolver + Digital Asset management, etc. very inefficient model  Consolidation requires a flexible platform capable of managing multiple type of library materials, multiple metadata formats, with appropriate workflows

25. Library Services Platform  Library-specific software. Technical infrastructure to help libraries automate their internal operations, manage collections, fulfillment requests, and deliver services  Services  Services-oriented architecture  Exposes Web services and other API’s  Facilitates the services libraries offer to their users  Platform  General infrastructure for library automation  Consistent with the concept of Platform as a Service  Library programmers address the APIs of the platform to extend functionality, create connections with other systems, dynamically interact with data

26. Library Services Platforms – Functional  Manages electronic and print formats of materials  Replaces multiple incumbent products  Extensive Metadata Management  Multiple procurement workflows  Knowledgebases  Built-in collection analytics  Decision support for collection development

27. Knowledge bases  Electronic Resource Management based on collective database of the body of e-content rather than library- by-library management  LSP extends knowledge base model to all resources  Make links or associations from local holdings to common bibliographic records  WorldShare Management Services – based on WorldCat Bibliographic records  Ex Libris Alma – includes Community Zone of shared records and resources  Intota: expanded knowledge base that includes MARC and other resources

28. Support for BIBFRAME  New bibliographic framework based on mapping MARC concepts and data into linked data model  No direct support for BIBFRAME in either integrated library systems or library services platforms  Developers are involved in BIBFRAME initiative  Operational implementations will come once the model has stabilized  Current phase of experimental projects and prototypes  Applies differently to discovery versus resource management

29. Library Services Platforms – Technical  Beyond Client/Server Computing  Multi-tenant platforms  Web-based interfaces  Services-oriented architecture  Exposes APIs for extensibility and interoperability  Interoperable

35. Cycle of adoption and deployment  Beginning of a new cycle of transition that will last a decade  Development and beta phase complete  Now in mass deployment phase  Over the course of the next decade, academic libraries will replace their current legacy products with new platforms  Not just a change of technology but a substantial change in the ways that libraries manage their resources and deliver their services

36. Relationship with Discovery  Discovery and Management solutions will increasingly be implemented as matched sets  Ex Libris: Primo / Alma  ProQuest: Summon / Intota  OCLC: WorldCat Discovery Service / WorldShare Platform  Except: Kuali OLE,  EBSCO Discovery Service: Works with any Resource management system  Both depend on an ecosystem of interrelated knowledge bases  API’s exposed to mix and match, but efficiencies and synergies are lost

40. Demise of the local catalog  Many library services platforms do not include the concept of an online catalog dedicated to local physical inventory  Designed for discovery services as public-facing interface  Implication: Discovery service must incorporate detailed functionality for local materials and related services

41. Discovery Strategy Options  Integrated suite: discovery and management systems from the same provider  Open source discovery + Library Services Platform  VuFind or Blacklight  Discovery layer + ERM with separate ILS for print collection

42. Fully Integrated Strategy  Library services Platform  Index-based discovery service  Integrated link resolution  Shared e-resource knowledgebase  Analytics available from back-end and discovery perspective

43. Split Management / Discovery Strategy  Library Services Platform for management of print and electronic resources  Separate index-based discovery  Knowledge base probably provided through Library Services Platform  Link Resolution separate from Discovery: how to perform smart linking?  Export and sync resource records from management to discovery service  API look-ups for resource availability and status  Patron profile and services request split between discovery and resource management components

44. Changing models of Resource Sharing

45. Progressive consolidation of library services  Centralization of technical infrastructure of multiple libraries within a campus  Resource sharing support  Direct borrowing among partner institutions  Shared infrastructure between institutions  Examples: 2CUL (Columbia University / Cornell University)  Orbis Cascade Alliance (37 independent colleges and universities to merge into shared LSP)

46. Bibliographic Database Library System Branch 1 Branch 2 Branch 3 Branch 4 Branch 5 Branch 6 Branch 7 Branch 8 Holdings Main Facility Search: Integrated Library System Patrons use Circulation features to request items from other branches Floating Collections may reduce workload for Inter-branch transfers Model: Multi-branch Independent Library System

49. Library Consortia  Groups of libraries want to work together to share an automation system  Number of participants limited by the perceived capacities of the automation system

50. Shared Infrastructure  Common discovery  Retention of local automation systems  Technical complex with moderate operational benefits  Common discovery + Resource Management Systems  Shared Resource management with local discovery options

51. Support for Collaborative Infrastructure

52. Benefits of shared infrastructure  Increased cooperation and resource sharing  Collaborative collection management  Lower costs per institution  Greater universe of content readily available to patrons  Avoid add-on components for union catalog and resource requests and routing

53. Large-scale Implementations  Scale of any given project is no longer limited  Multi-tenant systems are already supporting very large numbers of sites  Shared implementation does not necessarily require more resources than separate ones
